+Implement guardrail hooks following the design at ~/.claude/docs/plans/2025-01-06-guardrail-hooks-design.md
 
 Implementation order:
-1. Create skill skeleton: ~/.claude/skills/morning-report/ with SKILL.md and config.json
-2. Build collectors: weather.py, stocks.py, infra.py (easy wins first)
-3. Build gtasks.py collector (Google Tasks API - add OAuth scope)
-4. Build news.py collector (RSS feeds)
-5. Build generate.py orchestrator and render.py templating
-6. Create systemd timer and /morning command
-7. Test end-to-end and verify output
-
-Use appropriate LLM tiers:
-- Haiku: weather, stocks, infra formatting
-- Sonnet: email triage, news summarization
-- None: calendar, tasks (structured data)
+1. Create state/guardrails.json with starter rules config
+2. Create hooks/scripts/guardrail.py main logic
+3. Create hooks/scripts/guardrail-confirm.py confirm helper
+4. Modify hooks/hooks.json to add PreToolUse registration
+5. Modify hooks/scripts/session-end.sh to clear session allowlist
+6. Create logs/ directory
+7. Test: block scenario (catastrophic command pattern)
+8. Test: confirm scenario (operation outside safe paths)
+9. Test: allow scenario (operation in safe path)
+10. Test: git-aware detection
 
 Register in component-registry.json when complete.
